Sunglasses aren't just for summer, they're for the sun. In fact, the risk of unprotected eye damage is even greater when the sun's glare is intensified by reflection off snow — giving rise to the term "blinding white". Snow blindness — also called radiation keratitis, ultraviolet keratitis, photokeratitis or niphablepsia — may not be apparent until several hours after exposure. The cornea and the conjunctiva are burnt and inflamed.
